Wow, cannot say enough good things about Dr. Khalil! I have gone through 2 other Arlington dentists…read morein the past 1.5 years and I have finally found "the one"! I called and the receptionist was detailed and explained what I needed to do before the appointment. She also asked if I had a particular issue that needed to be addressed and made a note of it. Cleaning: very thorough. The hygienist walked me through everything, showed me around, and went through all my old records. Very thorough and helpful with all my questions. They have the latest technology. I told her that I had trouble with one tooth and she took detailed x-rays of it. They have headsets to communicate to each other. She finished my cleaning and asked through her headset if Dr. Khalil was ready for me before taking me to the other exam room. Dr. Khalil arrived to look at my affected tooth. He took a camera that looked like a pen and took a close up of the tooth. Right away, he could see that the filling was cracked. He gave me a thorough explanation of what he would do to fix it and even an estimate of how long it would take. He was careful not to overly criticize the previous dentist who did the filling but he showed me the crack, as well another issue with the filling, which is all I needed to know that the previous dentist did a hack job. Filling: I scheduled my filling with Dr. Khalil. I'm a recovering dental-phobe, so the numbing is an extremely anxiety ridden experience for me. I don't know what he used to pre-numb my mouth, but the needles didn't hurt at all! I was so impressed and I told him so. Once I was numb, Dr. Khalil went to work. He told me what he was doing at each step. He fixed my filling in no time and, unlike the previous dentist, I had no issues with my bite being too high. I told him that I had problems with the bite before and Dr. Khalil was quite confident that I wouldn't have any issues. He was right! It was such an easy experience! Customer service: The staff who works for Dr. Khalil are also very friendly and very attentive. Cons: The only two complaints I have is that it is rather difficult to find a good time slot with Dr. Khalil unless you book in advance. They are very busy and popular (with good reason). Also, for appointment reminders, they call a week in advance, then text, and then an email. (Probably because of the 4-day cancellation policy.) A little too much, in my opinion. I got a text for a reminder one morning, which asks to call to confirm. I didn't have time to do it right away but intended to as soon as I could. About two hours later, the receptionist called me to remind me again. It was a little excessive. But overall: I love this practice! Top notch and the best in Arlington in my opinion!

Sarah said there was some…read moretime available and I went over thinking he would look at it and see me later in the day or another day to actually fill it. Well I got there at 2pm and was out before 3pm complete! I was escorted to a room at about 2:03 and the assistant was super nice and chatted with me for a bit. Then Bruce came in and took a look, said "Yup, its a filling" and with the skill of a master swabbed some topical anasthetic and gave me a shot of numbing agent. He talked with me for a while, then left the room and came back 15 min later or so. I napped I was so comfortable. He drilled for a few seconds and was done within 8 minutes, maybe less. He was great, super fast and just easy. I love this guy for his nice demeanor and is staff for being so accommodating and kind. May 23, 2014 - edit I went in for my bi - annual cleaning and the hygienist was fantastic. She always is and what i love about her is tgat my teeth are in perfect condition. And its because of her. She got me using the picks with the fuzzy ends and now my teeth and gums are in perfect shape. A couple of weeks ago I called because a crown fell off, not his, and he got me in that day and fixed it in less than 10 min. Really fantastic office, I highly recommend

BAD BILLING PRACTICE!!! There is only one side to this story. Let me begin. I went to see Dr…read more Jelinek for TMJ pain, which is covered by my insurance BCBS, and it was verified that he is in network. It was understood by the office that my treatment would be covered by insurance when using the proper codes for claims. Imagine my surprise when I received a massive bill because the claim was DENIED. To get to the bottom of this, I had BCBS do a 3 way call with Patricia from billing to ensure their office adhered to proper protocol (using proper coding and timely submission). The wonderful BCBS insurance rep walked her through on what codes to use. Despite this, Patricia still submitted the wrong codes (not even TMJ codes, but instead for snoring- a problem I do not have). This obviously resulted in the claims getting denied, leaving me responsible for the full balance. This is best case careless and worst case, fraudulent. She didn't have the decency to inform me that the claims were denied and instead sent the bill straight to a collections agency. Imagine my surprise when I received a notice from COLLECTIONS!! Of course the letter from collections is when I learned something was clearly going wrong. I reached out to BCBS and I called Patricia immediately and she claimed she sent a bill 7 times to my confirmed home address, but I never received any bills. I spent hours on the phone with BCBS trying to figure out what went wrong only to learn that ALL the fault was on the office's end. If Patricia had filed the codes correctly like she was told, I wouldn't be hung with a full bill. Collections was actually lovely, and gave me time to figure things out. In the midst of this, I had one appointment with Dr. Jelinek and during that appointment, he rudely tried to get me to pay the bill in full, complaining he hasn't gotten paid in months and he has to pay his rent and staff. I told him the new corrected claims haven't finished processing and he needs to wait for that to go through. He has a contract with BCBS in which he has to respect the agreed rate and write off the rest, but instead he balance billed me (charging a patient more than the allowed amount) hoping to get paid in full, which is illegal in the state of VA. Balance billing is unethical. He eventually got paid by insurance and I was ready to move forward with treatment. At my next appointment, he told me he will no longer deal with insurance and I would be responsible for paying each visit in full. He said dealing with insurance is a waste of his time, even though I was the one doing all the work. He told me he is not a bank and cannot wait months to get paid as he has to pay his staff. I had to remind him that the reason was Patricia and her negligence with the codes. He said he did not want to talk about it. I wish someone had told me of his new payment policy before the appointment because I would have canceled. He waited for me to arrive to tell me this, wasting both his time and mine. He has zero regards for his patients, scamming them hoping to get maximum payment. Patricia is a nightmare to work with, an absolute royal pain- so rude even the insurance rep was shocked the way she spoke to her and Dr. Jelinek is just outright unprofessional. Lastly, the office could use an update as the decor is stuck in the 1970's.

I recently had my 6 month regular check up with FC Family Dentistry and was VERY pleased with their level of customer service, care, and friendliness! Dr. Gul was excellent, providing thorough explanations of their approach to cleaning and care and asked me at least twice if I was experiencing any pain during my cleaning (I felt nothing!). Before and after the cleaning she explained why she was recommending X-rays and the three issues she'd identified, stating that she would confirm the level of urgency via the X-rays. The equipment used was modern and Dr. Gul provided a thorough assessment of my teeth and gums based on the X-rays. In the end, she explained that she would continue to monitor the situations vs. take immediate action and counseled me on how to avoid making things worse. This was so refreshing, as many dentists are often looking for ways to charge you for things you may or may not need. Dr. Gul's beside manner and that of her technician's was kind, warm, caring, and gentle. I am so pleased to have found a dental practice that focuses on the needs of their patients and treats them with such warm care vs. rushing them in and out! Thank you FC Family Dentistry for taking great care of me and my daughter on our first visit! Looking forward to a long relationship with your practice!

I have a tooth that sadly seemed beyond repair, and needed to see someone quick. I should make it known that I'm petrified of dentists, which is basically what caused my current issue in the first place. I was referred to Dr. Fishman by a friend, and trusted it was a good choice. The staff was very friendly from the start, and I was surprised they were able to squeeze me in on such short notice. When I met Dr. Fishman, I immediately knew he had a great attitude. I explained my anxiety and fear to him, and he was more than sympathetic. Every step of the way, he was honest about my situation, what work I would need, and what he could do to fix my tooth. He walked me through every single step of the procedure, all the while explaining the methods he was using. I felt no pain, and only minor discomfort which in reality, should be expected. When I say I felt NOT ONE of the three shots he gave me before the drill, I really mean I felt nothing. Amazing. What I liked best is that he kept saying, "should you chose to return as my patient....." I felt like he was doing his best to ease my worries, and at no time made me feel like I was stuck with him. I will be returning to this office to have some more work done, and I cannot give anything but highest recommendations. I am so happy I found a great dentist!
